Fine-grained timeout configuration
----------------------------------

                 Key: FELIX-1960
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-1960
             Project: Felix
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Event Admin
    Affects Versions: eventadmin 1.0.0
            Reporter: Carsten Ziegeler


The timeout setting for event delivery is currentl a global setting - event 
listeners should (recommended by the spec as well) start an async thread if 
they need some time to process the event.
With the timeout setting in place, this creates two threads for each event 
delivery: one for the timeout handling and one for the event processing.

I think it would be nice, if one could optimize this behaviour by configuring 
the event admin to directly call specific event listeners and don't check the 
timeout. An administrator could add well-known event listeners to this 
configuration. This would reduce the server load for well-behaving event 
listeners.

I could imagine something like 
ignore.timeout.for=org.apache.sling.jcr.*,my.special.EventListener  (with a 
better name for the config property) - so you can either add package prefixes 
or specific classes to the configuration.
